\nUniqlo is collecting from website visitors snapshots shooting their exercise posing (due May 1st), and selected 888 pictures will be used in the commercial films that the company is to start broadcast in May.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Now you can be a part of it, and you may leap to fame in Mainland China only by posting several pictures.

\nAuthor’s Note: In Chinese culture, the number 8 is lucky because its pronunciation reminds all of Chinese word “\u767a\u8ca1” meaning making a good success or being wealthy.\u00a0\u00a0 That’s why it’s 88 colors and 888 pictures.
